If only we had invented and built some sort of alternative mode of collective transportation. Maybe it could be in tunnels and ride on metallic rails. It would serve many people and make periodic stops to the same locations instead of the highway clusterf- we have today. Sad that we don’t, but a man can dream though. A man can dream though. A man can dream.
Are blue collar workers well paid? Here’s some data: https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/median-household-income-by-state.
The data suggests that a $75,000 debt on top of rent or a mortgage would strap a families net earnings, but the pre-owned cost should be closer to $40,000.
In conclusion, debt sucks and over 5 years, everyone props up bankers.
